Commercial Description:
It is called the "model of meter" among beers. All other pilsners are a better or worse attempt to copy the original - the first ever Pilsner Urquell. Its unparalleled exceptionality is guaranteed by the same recipe dating from 1842.

Appearance: lovely golden orange with no visible carbonation and a small white head. Aroma: slight grass, some yeast, wheat, fresh corn. Flavour: tasty fresh grass, wheat. Sharp crisp bite with a lovely dry finish. I’m very surprised.

Bottle @ Metro Billiards. 4.4%. Clear yellow colour, nice white foam. Taste is quite good, light and fairly sweet, aroma is pleasant and hoppy. Certainly my favourite pilsner thus far, and fitting, given that this is the benchmark.

The original and possibly the best. Really refreshing, nice low ABV and very well priced. For me this is the best drink to be served cold on a hot day.

On tap. Pours deep golden with a generous creamy white head. Malty aroma, grass. Nice malty flavour and quiet a bit of Saaz hops blended nice together.

Draught (500 ml) at Hilpeä Hauki, Helsinki, Finland. Clear golden colour with small white head. Grainy, malty and hayish aroma. Malty flavour with great Czech hoppiness. Excellent Pilsener.

Pours golden with a white head. Nose is skunky. Perfect level of hop taste for a pils with a faint note of malt. The source of imitation for all American macro lagers; they all pale in comparison to the original.
